Aaron charismatically makes some toasties

Aaron is a Leo, and his horoscope reads as follows:

Today is a day for you to embrace your natural leadership qualities. Your natural charisma and confidence will help you succeed in any endeavours you pursue. Use this opportunity to inspire and motivate those around you but be mindful of not coming across as too domineering. Take charge and lead the way.

Aaron instructs Tom Cashman to “Rise”, and Tom stands up. We then see them both in the kitchen, where Aaron says his instincts are telling him to make a toasted sandwich.

When he tells Tom he wants him to find him some bread, Tom suggests that he needs to say it with some charisma. Aaron responds by asking “Can you get some BREEEAD? Okay!”, before asking Tom how to be more charismatic.

Tom performs a search on his tablet and reads out some tips on being charismatic, such as “Smile more”, “Look people in their beautiful eyes”, “Keep your hands in view, and use them to help you speak”. At this point, Aaron stops buttering the bread, and waves his hands towards Tom.

Aaron begins to construct his toasted sandwiches, saying that he likes “a saucy bastard”, prompting Tom to ask if that is what he always calls his toasties.

Aaron fries the sandwich before saying he thinks it’s pretty good, and that they have achieved their goals. Giggling, Aaron then asks Tom if he thinks he should do some more stuff, before tossing a toasted sandwich in the frying pan.

Tom and Aaron then share one of the toasties, before Aaron empties another from the frying pan onto the kitchen counter, stating that he’ll “have that bastard later”.

In the studio, Tom Gleeson checks that he understands correctly that Aaron’s version of taking charge was to make a toasted sandwich. Aaron responds that this summary is not flattering, but defends himself by claiming that the process showed his leadership qualities, and his best charisma.

When Tom Cashman asks Aaron if he would like to use some of his charisma on the Taskmaster, Aaron awkwardly says “Good on ya, mate!” to Tom Gleeson.

For asserting himself and making “a bastard”, Tom awards Aaron 2 points.
